This deeply expressive and thoughtfully crafted red from California’s Wheeler Vineyard (part of the Siletto Family Vineyard) is made from 100% Sagrantino, organically farmed and own-rooted. The grapes were destemmed and macerated on their skins for four full weeks, then fermented with native yeasts, followed by 16 months of élevage in neutral Bordeaux barrels.
This wine leans into Sagrantino’s naturally brooding character—but with restraint: aromatics of crème de cassis, graphite, blue fruits, lavender, and delicate florals meet a richly textured palate and an elegant, enduring finish. It’s polished yet grounded, bottled unfined and unfiltered for purity.
Pairs beautifully with game meats, aged cheeses, or hearty stews—dishes that complement its depth and structure without overwhelming its nuance.
